  • A Love So Great

    This past week, I have been drawn to the image of the Lamb. I was sitting at Church, and the etching of a lamb in the Marian side altar was in front of me. I had never paid it much attention before, but I found myself gazing upon this image, and contemplating what it means

  • Here’s My Heart Lord

    The words echo in my mind, “Here’s my heart, Lord,” lyrics from a song. I listen to this song and make the words my prayer to the Lord. I offer Him my heart, open and with surrender. I offer Him my heart, with trust and hope. I offer Him my heart, with abandonment and joy.

  • The Gospel reading from Mass this past weekend touched my heart. St. Martha is one of my favorite saints. I definitely see my struggles with anxiety in a new way when I hear the dialogue between her and the Lord. I read this scripture quite often, as it always brings out something new for me

  • As I was sitting in a chapel that I was visiting last weekend, I noticed under the pew that one of the tiles was cracked. It was visible to me because it was in front of me, but hidden from everyone else. I felt God speak to me, “My daughter, I see your wounds that

  • A Gentle Healer

    The Lord has been with me, as a little baby. I have not spent much time with the Lord this way. He presents Himself to me, as an infant, and invites me to spend time with Him. He doesn’t talk to me, but I understand that He desires me to sit with Him. He is

  • He Cares For You

    Cast all your worries upon Him, because He cares for you. 1 Peter 7 The Lord has been calling me to a place of greater trust and surrender. A place where I open my heart to Him, and He fills it with His love. And, through the grace of God, it is poured out from

  • You Give Me Strength

    He took the child by the hand and said, “Talitha Koum”, which means, “Little girl, I say to you, arise”. Mark 5:41 Lord, when I feel like the enemy has knocked me down, You call me to rise up. Your words are like honey that soothe my weary soul. I stand, but I am unable
